How Is Silk Used

Silk fibers are usually used to make clothes. However, fewer and fewer people are purchasing clothes made of pure silk for its high cost value and costly maintenance. In general, now, more and more people choose clothes made of silk fibers with other natural and synthetic fibers. Besides, silk is also used in other industries and for military purposes. For instance, it can be used to make fishing fibers, parachutes, cartridge bags, insulation coils for telephones, wireless receivers, filter clothes for flour mills, and in medical dressings and suture materials.
